Bluetooth, for wireless connectivity to a Headset Bluetooth or a Bluetooth Car Kit, supports convenient usage of the phone.

However, that's not actually the case anymore. While Apple's iMessage software is exclusive to iOS and you won't find it in the Google Play Store, a new app called Beeper lets you access the iMessage platform.
